From Doggerland is the shared practice of socially engaged artists Gemma Gore (UK) and Jo Willoughby (Netherlands). Since 2019, the collaboration takes care to develop opportunities for collective learning and creativity in nature. The project emerges from Doggerland, a submerged landscape now covered by the tides of the North Sea. Through the making of artworks, using drawing, textiles, performance, writing, lens media and coding correspondence is developed over distance. The project highlights that even in distance, we must come together through creeping tides and changing climate.

What can water teach us about connection, how can we reciprocate and give back?

Does the intertidal live within us?

If we perceive the marsh or the estuary ecotones as liminal, how might this in-betweenness or transitional place become a site for complex understandings of climate change, climate grief, climate hope and climate action?
